Catalase

Description

Catalase catalyzes the dismutation of hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen.

Abbreviation: Ctl

Reference: MiPNet09.12



MitoPedia topics: Enzyme 

Application in HRR

Clt: Catalase (from bovine liver, lyophilized powder; 2,000-5,000 U/mg protein); Sigma C 9322; store at -20 Β°C.

Catalase is included in the mitochondrial respiration medium MiR06 (MiR06 = MiR05 plus catalase), so as to allow for re-oxygenation of the respiration medium (without lifting the stopper and risking the introduction of air bubbles) by addition of a small volume of a 200 mM stock solution of H2O2.

Preparation of catalase stock solution

Stock solution: 112,000 U/ml (dissolved in MiR05)
Example: 'Catalase lypophilized powder; 2,800 U/mg solid and 3,500 units/mg protein'
1) Use 'units/mg solid' for your calculations
2) Result: 40 mg catalase powder (2,800 U/mg) are dissolved in 1 ml MiR05 to obtain a catalase stock solution with 112,000 U/ml.


Unit definition: * Units of enzymatic activity (U) in Β΅mol/min; assay used by Sigma Aldrich: ' One unit will decompose 1.0 ΞΌmole of H2O2 per min at pH 7.0 at 25 Β°C, while the H2O2 concentration falls from 10.3 to 9.2 mM, measured by the rate of decrease of A240. '

  • Titration volume: 5 Β΅l Ctl using a 25 Β΅l syringe (2 ml O2k-chamber).
  • Final concentration: 280 U/ml.
